If you’ve never listened to jazz or you’re interested in it, now is a great time to start. There’s an era of band camp kids that grew up listening to hip hop that are making some funky, soulful shit.
Now, some of my favorite older albums. Some you’ve probably heard of...
Finally

I just got hip to Woody Shaw a week or so ago. I definitely need to spend some time with his catalog https://tidal.com/album/107143493 
This book is worth picking up, especially if you’re into photography and design. I added about 10 albums to my phone just from seeing the covers.
